Living Room Christmas

Slowly but surely we're decking the halls around here, and we finally have the living room done. I love this time of year but I don't want it overdone.

We have a small house. Let me repeat, we have a small house. Too many decorations and it looks cluttered and messy. I hate messy!

So we keep it simple around here. Simple I can do. Life is so busy and its hard enough to focus on Christ this time of year. We don't need decor getting in the way or adding to the overwhelmed feelings that can creep in.

Here are a few ideas for decorating small space for Christmas.

1. Try to stick as closely as you can to your regular decor colors.

If you have a lot of colors it adds to the busyness of the things and can overwhelm your eye. If you have a lot of color already in your everyday decor just add silver or gold for your scheme.

We will often take out our coffee table for the month of December. Its amazing how much bigger the room feels with this gone, once you get the tree up and other decor in place. Some years we will put the tree where the chair is and put that in the basement.

Hi, my name is Jody! I am a blessed mother of 4 and wife to an amazing husband. I'm not perfect and neither is my blog. This is my creative outlet for all the fun projects I like to do around our little house.

"Homey Home" is what my kids call our house and I hope that they always think of it this way. If you want to create a homey space as well I hope you will find some inspiration here! Thanks for joining me on this journey!
